Σάττος Εὐφροσύνῃ. ἄσπασον Φίρμον καὶ Τεκοῦσαν καὶ τοὺς ἡμῶν πάντας παρὰ τοῖς θεοῖς τῆς πόλεως τῶν Ἀντινοέων. τὸ κιθώνιν ἐπιλέλησμαι παρὰ Τεκοῦσαν εἰς τὸν πυλῶνα· πέμψον μοι
ὡς ἔπεμψάς μοι. καὶ ἐνοχλεῖς μοι ὅτι ὀφείλεις Ἀγαθῷ Δαίμονι χαλκόν. πεπλήρωκα αὐτόν. εἰ πεποιήκατε ψωμία, πέμψον μοι
ἕως τοῦ ἄλλου μηνὸς ἐλεύσομαι. εἴθε πάντας πεπλήρωκα ὡς Ἀγαθὸν
Δαίμονα. οὐκ ἦς ἐμὸς ἀνάδοχος. οὐκ ἔχεις πρᾶγμα. μὴ ἐνοχλῇς.
εἰ δεῖ, ἔρχομαι τῷ ἄλλῳ μηνί. παράδος τὸ κιθώνιν μου Κεραρέᾳ
τῇ κουρίδι. ἀσπάζου Στράτον καὶ Στρατονίκην καὶ τὰ παιδία
αὐτῶν. ἐρρῶσθαί σε εὔχομαι.

[recto]
Sattos to Euphrosyne. Greet Firmus and Tekousa and all our people, before the gods of the city of the Antinoites. I forgot my little tunic at Tekousa's, in the gateway; send it to me as you sent (the other things) to me. And you are bothering me because you owe Agathos Daimon some money. I have paid him in full. If you have made bread-cakes, send them to me. By next month I will come. I wish I had paid everyone in full as I have Agathos Daimon. You were not my guarantor. You have no business in it. Do not bother me. If necessary, I am coming next month. Hand over my little tunic to Kerarea the barber. Greet Straton and Stratonike and their children. I pray for your health.
[verso]
To my sister Euphrosyne, Sattos son of Harpokras.

About this record's data
- From the source institution — accession, description, dimensions, and dating are as catalogued by Papyri.info — DDbDP (Duke Databank of Documentary Papyri) — text.
- AI-inferred — the image-analysis panel (deities, names, signs) is machine-generated and may be wrong.
- Approximate location — most map points are plotted at the site centroid, not the exact findspot.
- Inferred links — cross-references marked with a match method other than explicit-source-field were matched by us, not stated by the source.
- Inherited across the Trismegistos spine — a Trismegistos ID names one ancient text, and papyrology splits that text's description across databases: the edition in one, the date and provenance in another, the physical papyrus in a third. Fields tagged via … on this page were read from a sibling record under the same TM number, not asserted by Papyri.info — DDbDP (Duke Databank of Documentary Papyri) — text.
